The summer sun was scorching the earth. Kamishiro Kiyokazu walked in the shade as much as possible, arrived at the agreed place, and got into two silver-gray cars.
After he sat down, the vehicle started slowly.
There are other people in this car, Mr. Izumi in the driver's seat, Mrs. Izumi in the passenger seat, and Ango Sakaguchi in the back seat.
Kamidai Kiyawa greeted them according to etiquette and leaned on his seat without moving.
Like a vegetable that lacks water, its leaves are all curled up.
Sakaguchi Ango probably knows why.
In other words, anyone who has some channels to pay attention to the underground world of Yokohama will find it difficult to ignore the recent actions of the port mafia.
In less than two months, Mafia, which had always been very stable, began to expand, grabbing several pieces of land at a jaw-dropping speed, seizing the transportation lines of other organizations and opening several new businesses.
Road, what is even more surprising is that they digest it very quickly. The entire mafia is like an efficient machine, turning these into its own resources at an incredible speed and operating stably.
As the leader, Seiwa-senpai must be very busy with his work.
But Ango Sakaguchi still has a lot of doubts...
呲.
The sound of the partition rising.
This is one of the features of this official car that allows the front seat to not hear conversations in the back seat.
Kamidai Kiyokazu took back his hand that pressed the button and said calmly: "Ask whatever you want to ask. I'll take a nap after you ask. Call me when you get there."
The purpose of their trip was to enroll students in an orphanage.
In other words, picking up leaks.
The focus is to find out whether there are underage people with supernatural powers in remote orphanages outside the city.
Those that are not remote have of course been plowed through by the Secret Service Division.
Sakaguchi Ango organized his speech and thought: "Senior Seiwa, the expansion of Port Mafia in the past two months..."
Kamishiro Qinghe sighed: "I don't want to either."
really.
Was it Ozaki Momiji's counterattack? A's trick? Or did Ogai Mori do something?
Sakaguchi Ango was thinking solemnly before his partner announced the answer:
"The leader is Dazai."
"...?"
Sakaguchi Ango slowly typed a question mark.
He was silent for a long time, a little suspicious that he was hallucinating, "Dazai... Dazai Osamu?"
Kamidai Kiyoka nodded.
"That 14, no, Osamu Dazai, who is 15 this year? A student of Mori Ogai?"
Sakaguchi Ango was in disbelief.
"ah."
Kamishiro Kiyokazu said, "Call me Dazai-kun, he is my friend."
"Dazai-kun..."
Sakaguchi Ango's pupils shrank, "How is that possible?"
Even without seeing the scene, based on the review afterwards, Sakaguchi Ango was able to deduce the Mafia's recent frequent actions, a style of piercing the enemy's hinterland like a sharp knife. It is sophisticated and sharp, and often breaks the situation from unexpected places.
Some people guessed that this was the work of Ozaki Momiji, while others said that the new leader of Mafia finally showed his fangs...
"Look."
Kamishiro Kiyoka crossed his arms, "I knew you had this reaction, so I didn't say it in the email."
The black-haired young man watched his partner's changing expressions with great interest, and added in his heart, how could he appreciate such a change of expression without speaking to his face.
Sakaguchi Ango digested it for a long time, and quickly found out the discord, and said worriedly: "Seniwa-senpai can't contain Dazai-kun? Is it because of Mori Ogai's support or..."
"It's me."
Kamidai Kiyoka's mouth twitched slightly, he stopped his partner's speculation and said decisively, "I have always been the one who supported Dazai. I am very good and have great power. I am a leader worthy of the name. I have not been ignored, concealed or betrayed."
Sakaguchi Ango gradually became confused: "Then this...?"
"Dazai is angry with me."
Kamidai Kiyowa made a decadent and puzzled voice, "What on earth is he angry about?"
"…………"
Ango Sakaguchi felt dizzy.
It was very difficult for him to digest what his partner said: In other words, in the past two months, there has been a small earthquake in the Yokohama underground world, and the so-called expansion that has caused real and false information to fly everywhere has no deep meaning hidden behind the scenes, nor is it some kind of major event.
The sign of things to come was just 15-year-old Dazai Osamu specifically causing trouble for his friend because he was angry with him?!
Sakaguchi Ango answered firmly: "Senior Seiwa, can't you think of something to make Dazai-kun angry?"
Kamishiro Kiyokazu: "Probably not..."
Could it be that the high-heeled mark on the former leader's body was exposed? Or was it that the registration of Dazai Osamu's name was discovered? Or maybe Xiaoqi secretly sent a letter to Chuuya...
"--Bar."
"...I can hear your guilty conscience." Sakaguchi Ango couldn't help but started to complain, and said feebly, "Senior Seiwa, what did you do to stimulate the potential of the 15-year-old Dazai-kun to explode..."
Ah this.
Kamidai Kiyoshi looks at the roof of the car.
He was silent for a while, then started to find something to say, "It's not like his potential has exploded. Dazai is already very smart, and he has learned a lot of miscellaneous things. In short, I have been working overtime for more than a month. He sees how miserable I am, so he should
…”
After a pause, the young man's tone became uncertain, "...have you calmed down?"
"…………"
ah.
Is this how geniuses get along?
Sakaguchi Ango didn't understand, but he was greatly shocked.
He organized his thoughts in his mind.
In other words, in the past two months at Port Mafia, the one who expanded the territory outside was the little-known Dazai Osamu, and the one who digested the new gains inside was Seiwa-senpai, and the others were either charging or assisting...
——At this point, Sakaguchi Ango finally had the real feeling that Kamishiro Kiyokazu controlled the port mafia.
"Will Dazai-kun still take action?"
he asked.
"It all depends on our enrollment situation."
Kamishiro Kiyoka calmly stated his well-thought-out conclusion, "As long as we recruit students that interest Dazai, he should go to school next month. This way, we won't have time to mess around with the organization."
Both my own organization and other organizations.
"...?"
Sakaguchi Ango slowly typed a question mark again.
Are you so humble?! Seiwa-senpai, show off the momentum of your leader?! Dazai-kun is obviously powerless and nameless in the underworld, and there is no way he can...
etc.
Sakaguchi Ango realized something, "Dazai-kun's information..."
"I hid."
Kamidai Kiyokazu said matter-of-factly, "He still has to go to school, so it's not good to be in the limelight like this now."
Sakaguchi Ango: "..."
For some reason, he was obviously a government civil servant, but when he heard his partner talking about going to school, he felt that it was already a lifetime ago.
A teenager who can play other organizations like this at the age of 15, does he really need to go to school?
I always feel like something is wrong.
Kamishiro Kiyawa murmured in a low voice: "But if Dazai continues, he won't be able to hide for long... How about we talk to him openly? But he deliberately avoided me and created a lot of work for me..."
well.
I never expected that Dazai the cat would turn out to be a curly king cat.
Compared with Osamu Dazai, Momiji, who is a bit introverted, is completely unattractive.
sad.
There was a strange silence in the back seat.
Sakaguchi Ango calmed down and asked curiously: "The mafia is so busy, how did Seiwa-senpai escape? He didn't even have a bodyguard."
"Odasaku is going to follow Dazai."
Kandao Kiyokazu leaned against the car window and said casually, "Holidays are like water in a sponge, there will always be a squeeze."
"?!"
The social animals said they didn’t understand.
Kamidai Kiyawa answered patiently, "If the organization is compared to a machine, the people at each node are the gears. It is useless if one gear turns fast. The other gears are running at the same speed, and the overall efficiency cannot be improved."
"..."
Seeing that his partner didn't seem to understand, Kamishiro Kiyawa stopped making metaphors and said simply and roughly, "I've finished all my work, and I can't take over if other people's parts haven't been finished."
"……oh."
As expected, he is the only senior Qinghe among his colleagues who can commute to get off work normally.
Sakaguchi Ango had a look of admiration on his face.
The roads in the suburbs have not been repaired for a long time, and the silver-gray car is inevitably unstable while maintaining speed, but Kamidai Kiyokazu is still sleeping soundly.
Using fragmented time to sleep instantly is one of the secrets of his efficiency.
In the past two months, due to the placement of advertisements and flyers, as well as the publicity carried out by Port Mafia professionals in Leibo Street, more and more future students have gathered. For them, the future is unknown, but the bright and clean students
Dormitories and spacious and clean canteens are a rare paradise. Even if the students are recruited not from schools but from factories or other places, they are still willing to do so.
Of course, factories and other places will not recruit such child laborers who are underage, thin, have no strength and skills, and will make them violate the law.
——The gain outweighs the loss.
In order to prevent Hope Academy from appearing to be a charity, there is a lot of extracurricular work in the plan. Although the student loans are reasonable and not low, Mafia is the one who collects the debt, but obviously these are not enough to make the orphans retreat - because they
In daily life, we are far away from having enough food and clothing, and those with the worst conditions are on the verge of life and death every day, let alone other things.
And orphanages may not be any better.
After being woken up, Kamidai Kiyoshi and slowly got out of the car and followed their partners into this remote orphanage. Before they could stand still, they smelled the smell of blood.
Kids fighting? Or—
The darker ones.
Kamishiro Kiyoka looked at the jarheaded dean in front of him and said lazily: "Call out all the children and we will adopt them."
The combination of "Holographic Online Game" and "Depravity Theory", the former can identify the superpowers within the field of vision at a glance, and the latter can read whether there is anything hidden in the hospital, if the child's superpowers are rioting, or there are evil superpowers
If someone attacks, "Yaksha Shirayuki" can suppress it, and others can also use thermal weapons.
Overall, this is a well-equipped and efficient four-man team.
…
Ten minutes later.
Sakaguchi Ango pushed up his glasses, "Are all the children here?"
The dean smiled in a good manner: "Yes."
Sakaguchi Ango: He lied.
Kamishiro Kiyokazu: I understand.
After exchanging glances with his partner, Kandairo Kiyokazu casually made an excuse, "I'm going to the bathroom, you guys talk first."
There are very few adults in this orphanage, and now almost all the adults are dragged to the lobby...
——Free time to explore.
Kamishiro Kiyokazu strolled around the vegetable garden, knocked on the building, then went to the dean's office, walked around again, and after a visual inspection, opened the door to the basement.
...no challenge at all.
As the steps went down, the smell of blood became stronger and stronger.
The floor, walls, iron cage... there were dried and discolored blood stains everywhere.
It's like a low-end version of Mafia's underground prison.
Lynching?
The further away from the city, the more wild and wild things become.
The corners of Kamidai Kiyawa's lips curved into a smileless arc, and he recalled the sentencing for intentional injury in his mind. He thought that he would ask Ango to come and read some evidence later, and then send the dean in.
